Mission

TO FUND THE PROGRAM AND SERVICES OF HOSPICE OF THE NOTHWEST TO ENSURE DIGNIFIED AND COMPASSIONATE CARE IS AVAILABLE TO ANYONE COPING WITH A LIFE-LIMITING DIAGNOSIS.ONE SIZE DOESN'T ALWAYS FIT ALL, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO QUALITY OF LIFE. SOMETIMES, A PATIENT NEEDS SOMETHING THAT IS OUTSIDE OF WHAT IS CONSIDERED "ROUTINE" CARE BY MEDICINE AND MOST INSURANCE COMPANIES. SOMETIMES THOSE NEEDS ARE SIMPLE, LIKE A SECOND SET OF SHEETS, OR A BLENDER FOR A PATIENT WHO CAN ONLY TAKE LIQUIDS. AND SOMETIMES, THESE NEEDS CAN BE MUCH MORE CHALLENGING, LIKE THE PALLIATIVE RADIATION THERAPY THAT COULD HELP A BED-BOUND PATIENT WALK IN HER GARDEN AGAIN. THESE NEEDS ARE CALLED ATYPICAL TREATMENTS AND THEY ARE ESSENTIAL TO A PATIENT'S COMFORT AND QUALITY OF LIFE.
